Chapter 860: Three Points of Temperament, Seven Points of Dr
man."She was taken care of for two years, but she not only betrayed the family honor but also stole their savings""My goodness, how on earth does she have the face to come back to the village""It seem...Fang Jinxiu and Fu Shangyuan sat aside drinking tea. Fu Shangyuan didn't seem curious about the pot at all, looking very calm.
"Your Highness, what official position does that palace official hold in court"
"What is your family background"
"What's their character like"
"How old are you this year"
Have you ever been married and had children
Fu Shangyu's eyebrows shot up, and he put down the teacup in his hand.
"Well, have you taken a fancy to someone"
Fang Jinshi shook her head. "That's not true."
Fu Shangyuan said, "I thought someone else had saved your son once, and you were going to marry yourself to them."
"Your Highness, Prince Jing, please don't make such jokes. My mother-in-law isn't that old, actually. If it were possible, I hope she could still find her own happiness."
But such things are unpredictable, and Fang Jinshu didn't necessarily have to find a suitable match for the Mu family.
But today, the atmosphere between them seemed off. The way Lord Gong looked at her mother-in-law was clearly different from how he looked at others.
So she was being proactive and asked around just in case.
Upon hearing this, Fu Shangyuan readily told Fang Jinshu about Gong Yu's information.
"Palace Master is a scholar-official in the Imperial Academy, holding the rank of fifth grade."
"He seems to be about thirty-seven. He is a low-key person and a scholar in the Hanlin Academy. He rarely interacts with other ministers on weekdays, and his writing talent seems quite outstanding."
"...nor have I ever heard that he married and had children."
While listening to King Jing's introduction, Fang Jinshu translated it in her heart.
Gong Yu was thirty-seven years old. Having served in the court for so long, he must have been in his position for quite a while. He had only reached the rank of the Fifth Grade official after all this time, and he didn't enjoy socializing with people. Judging from his demeanor, his official position wasn't one of power or influence.
Just a shy bookworm, that's all.
It's about the same as her impression of Gong Yu when they first met.
However, when he heard the last sentence, Fang Jinxiu was also taken aback.
"Still not married and have no children at thirty-seven"
"Could it be, Your Majesty, that you have something on your mind that you are hesitant to speak of"
King Jing shook his head, "I don't know about that. If you want to know so badly, why not ask him yourself"
"Even if you asked him, he wouldn't get angry given Lord Gong's temperament."
Well, well, so you're still the good guy, pushover.
King Jing is instigating her to bully others.
"Judging by the Lord Wang's tone, Palace Master must have been bullied quite a bit in his daily life."
"Probably." Jing Wang said with a nonchalant expression.
Even though Palace Elm was a Fifth Rank official, an official of that low standing wasn't worth his notice.
What's more, he wasn't some important official.
Fang Jinshu was quite satisfied with this palace official. Such a person had a pure mind, a good character, and was content to live a quiet life in the shadows, making them an excellent choice for someone who simply wanted to lead a simple and fulfilling life.
Fang Jinxiu still cares a lot about the reason why Gong Yu hasn't gotten married yet.
After a while, the Mu family came out with the two children dressed in new clothes. Gong Yu also put on new clothes and came before them, feeling a bit embarrassed.
He flushed and said, “This garment is truly too valuable. I will certainly wash it thoroughly and return it when I go back down.”
With his salary, he couldn't even afford such a fine garment after saving for several months.
The clothes belong to Zong柏. He's been helping out at Jinxiu Mountain Villa recently, so he brought some extra clothing and things with him to stay here.
Zong Bai usually dresses plainly and prefers simple styles.
Don't look at Gong Yu, he seems frail. His previous clothes were too ill-fitting, loose and baggy, and completely soaked and clinging to him. They didn't notice that Lord Gong's figure was actually so straight and tall.
It's true that people rely on clothing, three points of temperament and seven points of dressing up. This outfit really highlights the rich scholarly air about Gong Yu, elegant and dignified.
"Master Gu, please don't be so polite. We still haven't figured out how to thank you for today's matter. It's just a piece of clothing."
"If this garment had not been worn by my younger brother, I would have given it to Lord Gong."
Gong Yu repeatedly waved his hands, constantly saying "it's impossible" with his mouth.he polite rejection, it seems he has no hope of taking her into his inner circle.Fu Ming had thought more than once that Fang Jinshu, despite being just a woman, was far more capable than most men.If...
